Gamestop No Longer Pushing Used Games?

Leaked internal e-mails say the company won't try to rip you off anymore.

It appears Gamestop, one of the strongest video game retail chains in North America, may finally be easing off one of its most annoying store policies.

A Gamestop manager apparently leaked details from company letters to Kotaku saying that employees will no longer have to push used copies of games 60 days after their initial released. This was apparently put in effect to "improve vendor relations."

This new policy doesn't come as a complete surprise. Developers and publishers absolutely hate used games sales, so this seems like Gamestop is taking the first step to alleviate any future drama.

So now, when you go to buy a new game that was just released, you won't be hassled to buy a used copy for $5 cheaper. Will this make you shop there again?

We've pinged Gamestop to see if they would comment on this. We'll let you know if we hear back.
